Frog Applause by Teresa Burritt for December 15, 2008

My ears are always open to you, Teresa.

“My WREATH cannot be defused” is also funny. And seasonal.

I have an imaginary set of earrings. Right one says in, left one says out. So You can complain as much as You like.

Glad to help! (where can I get a pair of those earrings, by the way?)

A school-teacher friend of mine tells me that children in her school are not allowed to say things like “I hate broccoli” because they have a zero-tolerance policy for hate speech. Poor kids. Pathetic school admin.

What a coincidence! I’ve never been called Terry either.

Being taught to supress one’s anger is not healthy. Broccoli doesn’t deserve to be hated… but that school policy does.

What’s this ‘when you let me express my anger’? You don’t need my permission. Ever. Honey chile.

Let me guess. That school policy is the Stepford Child Policy.

Wait, those are imaginary ? But I can SEE them !

sean–maybe you see Imaginary Chuck too! http://markclarkson.com/uh-huh.html I always have to hit cc (closed captioning) to understand the big guy. !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Where’s runar?

Runar hasn’t been around for quite a while. I’m a bit concerned about him.

I didn’t know that Golden Earring was a Dutch band. I love ‘Radar Love’, an excellent driving song. I like ‘Twilight Zone’, too. One of my favorite videos is ‘Thunderstruck’ by AC/DC, with Chris Slade on the drums. He’s so into what he’s playing.

On purpose?

Gweedo Murray says: “Dear Miss, Mrs or Mz Dowlatshahi. I wasn’t being funny or trying to convey disrespect by the appellation “Terry”.” I shouldn’t speak for Tess, Gweedo, but my impression was that her reply was just keeping in spirit with today’s strip. On the other hand, I thought if a second person (I) took liberties with here name; while it wouldn’t defuse her wrath, it might at least diffuse it. Anyway, if you’re in the doghouse, I’m in there doubly. :-(

On purpose? Not at all. My daughter and her husband play it along with the three boys. I tried it once. Made the crowd boo and the lead singer cry in anguish.
